All I remember is Thanos grabbing Odin's spear and encasing him in that crystal substance only for Odin to breakout.

Hmm I don't remember seeing Thanos "punch" Odin, can you post a scan for me? Oh and I'm pretty sure the fight would've went the same with or without Odin using the spear.

The spear itself doesn't have any power, it's just a tool Odin uses to channel his power from time to time.

It was real quick. Thanos was not hurt by Odin at all until he started channeling his energy through the spear.... odin blasts thanos, thanos takes, thanos blasts odin, odin takes, surfer blasts odin..nothing, thanos runs in and hits him with a charged punch right here, Odin slaps him away

Looks like Odin blocked Thanos' punch THEN slapped him away, it's clear that Odin is above Thanos with or without the spear. Thanos struggled to push through Odin's blast btw, you guys are making it seem like did it effortlessly.

However Odin did shrug off everything Thanos hit him with effortlessly, he never once stumbled, fell, or flew back. But hey, at the end of the day we're both gonna think what we think so this is pointless.

Are you sure your not confusing it with the time he killed a Galactus clone he made? Regardless, you answered your own question: hungry Galactus. If hungry enough, Galactus can get driven off by Thor, let alone Thanos.

wait...we're not on the same page lol. no one is saying Thanos can beat, or is even equal to Odin. I'm strictly talking about Thanos' durability.

It looks to me like Thanos' punch connects..but has no effect, while Odin's does. Odin blasted thanos twice, and thanos took it, but was still on the lower end. Odin then summoned the spear, and blasted thanos, once, thanos got up from it. Odin blasted thanos and he walked through it. We didn't say it was fast, it WAS slow. But the fact is that he was able to walk through a concentrate blast...and grab the spear, that was the impressive part.. before they went in the air and did whatever they did. Thanos got up slowly, but got up. Odin let him. And thanos was ready to keep going. He has since been upgraded one more time, so I personally think he would do a little better than before, but not enough to give him a good fight.

All I am saying is that Thanos is Durable enough to hang with someone on Odin's level for a little while, but he's lacking in the offensive for that specific tier.

I'm not saying he can beat him, Not that it was a good, even fight, not that he was able to hurt him, just that he was able to take Odin's punishment for like 13 pages, and survive, and look fine like a page later or something. his durability

Oh my bad bro, I've been postin from my phone lately so I haven't been able to read as thoroughly as I should. Yeah I see what you meant now and I agree wholeheartely Thanos is one TOUGH bastard.

With all of this talk about Odin and Thanos, one must wonder on why Odin wouldn't get involved when Thanos becomes more of an direct threat for everyone since Thanos's goals threatens all life in existence.

the only reason I don't see Odin getting physically involved is because in the MCU he's basically not portrayed as a fighter, more of a ruler and onlooker. But we'll see if Odin has any real action in this film, but I doubt it.

I would think that if something angered Odin enough he would get more involved physically.

but it's different. The face of the MCU, in a way, is the avengers. They are going to be the ones to stop thanos more than likely

But the thing was that they established in the first film that having the title of King in Asgard basically entails that you be in charge of maintaining the peace throughout the realms and if one foe emerges that threatens all of that, then Odin should meet it head on since he's still more powerful than Thor at the moment.

They've never actually said that Odin is stronger/more powerful than Thor in the MCU though have they? Just because he's the one who maintains peace in the realms doesn't mean he's also the most powerful physically. I'm just highly doubting we see a comic book Odin in power levels in the MCU. But maybe if like Godzilla said something, like Thanos or someone else, made him get physically involved we would see that he'd essentially wipe the floor with anyone, which would be cool, but not really needed in the MCU.

Eh, Thor pretty clearly implied that Odin was on another level than Thor and the rest. Note that Thor *and* his whole band were something Laufey was going to kill, good fight or not. Odin shows up, everyone halts, and when Laufey himself attacks Odin, Laufey and everyone else gets blasted back for their efforts.

I guess I always just took that scene as a sign of respect towards Odin that they ceased attack, tagged along with him being a great warrior in his early days (the beginning of the movie scene) It does make sense that Odin is stronger than Thor, but I still don't think we'd ever see him battle. More like he'll die and his strength will be added to Thor's somewhere down the line.

Yeah Odin can be very intimidating when full of the Odin Force and the frost Giant scene was when he was in a weakened state.

yeah, I just don't think we'll ever see MCU Odin at full Odin force level, or ever fight at all.. save that for the comics, or eventually for Surtur if they want to use him there I suppose, but I think in Thor movies, just give me Thor doing the cool stuff.

I still stand by the theory that it will take all of the MCU good guys to stop Thanos not just the Avengers.

I feel the same way but I'm not giving up hope, I want Odin to lay an OF powered smackdown atleast ONCE.
